Hi Guys,
A quick explanation of my setup:
I have two ubuntu deployments for a site to site. Virtual Hubs are on both sides which are bridged to Network Adaptors. Traffic is passing from devices on each side.
I also need to get traffic to pass from the VPN Servers themselves. I understand this is natural and need to use a TAP on both sides, which are also bridged.
I'm have pains getting this configured. Can anyone help with configuration?
Thanks,
Site to Site with TAPs

Re: Site to Site with TAPs
I've got it configured now. For anyone else looking to do this:
Install bridge utils:
apt-get install bridge-utils
Create a TAP from within softether, I used vpncmd:
bridgecreate VirtualHubName /Device:tapintname /TAP:yes
Then change /etc/network/interfaces config to something like:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet manual
auto br0
iface br0 inet static
address 10.0.0.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 1.0.0.0
broadcast 1.0.0.255
bridge_ports eth0 tap_tapintname
bridge_stp off
bridge_fd 0
bridge_maxwait 0
Hope this helps anyone else looking for this solution...
